Fluff

Stephen Large who has been performing with Glenn Tilbrook, who was half of songwriting duo Difford & Tilbrook both formerly of Squeeze, they produced tons of the greatest, largely overlooked music of our time. I recommend the book, Squeeze Song by Song, by Jim Drury. A collection of their songs and interviews about the backgrounds of the music they produced. Buy Squeeze music, read the book, appreciate the genius!

I have seen Stephen play with with Glenn twice now, and "tokes!" doesn't quite explicate enough the theatrics this guy, who plays along as Glenn's sidekick deserves. On top of being a high energy, versatile entertainer he has a website that is worthy of mention and kind of fun to boot! Visit stephenlarge.com (including fun to play with keyboard thing on the home page).

PRANGSTGRUP, These guys suck! In fact I don't know why I'm even bothering linking to the whole website. I don't do that! See for yourself, that link is no endorsement.

But, I can't say the same about This guy in "Startup Sound"! Although their attempts are very "Trigger Happy TV-ish" this is the ONE, that rises above all. This guy only has only has one skit, and it's hysterical!
